Honda always seems to discount, plus, the "shipping charges, dealer prep, ect" never seem to really apply.

Seems like BMW was/is like Harley, retail plus - is that accurate???

Right now, Honda has the following promos:

Current Offers - The Official Honda Powersports Site

Not bad pricing, very competitive, being European & having spent a fortune on R&D.

The S1000RR we have has all the options: Paint, Quickshifter and Traction Control etc is is closer to $18,000 USD

Its only 500 more expensive than japanese 1000. Thatss nuts. And I want one really bad. For sure if one was to race in a 1000cc class this looks like the bike to have.

There is no getting 186hp out of a honda without pistons/cams/headwork. That is unreal. I really want one of these beemers. Maybe in a few years I'll have to sell the 600 and step up when some of these beasts are on the used market.

kraut, sausage, beer.
